This is a glimpse inside one of Amsterdam's hofje's In the five years that I have lived in this neighbourhood I have never seen inside this door. They are essentially sheltered apartments built around hidden courtyards. Built as a safe place, mainly for single, widowed women to live back when Amsterdam was rather more rambunctious than it is today.
